Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager
Seems to be more frequent when I am plugging in or unplugging the A/C adapter. The battery applet displays a dead battery icon, then power- manager window message notifies me that battery is critically low! without plugging in power computer will hibernate. However this is a false message, the hardware light is blue ( signaling a fully charged battery, and as soon as the message is closed, the battery applet returns to the correct status). I have done my own research on google to no availability. Most of the "fixes" were to make a script that would run cat /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/state and that would give power-manager the correct info, however that is not the case. I wrote the script and added it is a cron job / startup program, still occurs.
